Hon'ble Nalin Kumar Srivastava,J.
This application under Section 529 BNSS has been filed with a prayer to direct the court concerned to decide the Complaint Case No.482 of 2022 (Priya Vs. Vikki Rohilla and others) under Section 498-A IPC, Police Station Sahibabad, District Ghaziabad pending in the Court of Civil Judge (J.D.) / F.T.C., Ghaziabad, expeditiously within a stipulated period.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. for the State.
It has been submitted by the learned counsel for the applicant that the said case has been filed by the applicant / complainant under Section 498-A IPC in the year 2022. Applicant before this Court is the aggrieved wife. The accused persons of this case have been summoned and now case is pending for evidence under section 244 Cr.P.C. Accused are not cooperating with the court and only dates are being fixed for appearance. Almost 3 years have been passed and it has not been decided as yet. Therefore, prayer has been made to decide the aforesaid complaint case expeditiously within a stipulated period.
It appears from the perusal of the order-sheets of the trial court that evidence under section 244 Cr.P.C. of the complainant / applicant has already been recorded and now it is pending for rest evidence under section 244 Cr.P.C.
Since the matter pertains to section 498-A IPC, the witnesses of fact should be the family members of the complainant herself. Hence, the complainant / applicant is also directed as well as the court concerned to procure the presence of witnesses and thereafter all endeavours shall be made by the court concerned for the expeditious disposal of the complaint case, as described above, without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties.
It is also made clear that the Court / Presiding Officer is not the only stake holder in the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and executive authorities, counsels, parties to the case, staff are also made bound by this order and it will be their responsibility also to assist the Court in every manner for the expeditious disposal of this case.
